There is an old post about this where a dealer was making these but they decided against it for liability reasons. So I took it into my own hands and here's some pictures. I still need to modify the plastic shield and the switch is temporary so I can get to picking up rocks in the field. I have a Mystic switch panel waiting to be installed.

Here is a loaded picture of my box and the actuator dumps it effortlessly. I still need to post a video. Also this does limit the full dump travel but it hasnt caused me a problem yet. Ive hauled dirt and sand and it dumps good too.

That has to be really close to maxing out the load limit on that poor Honda!!!!!!

Love radiant heat. Best option possible to work on equipment in the winter!

60X64X20...... sounds like you might find room for one more Pioneer!

Theyre never big enough. Started out 30x40x12 tall then, fil said make it big enough for the combine to be worked on, that turned into 40x60, then I said my toys are going to be in there too. So now its 60x64x20 tall. Insulated with in floor heat.
You’re doing it right!! I’m already contemplating an addition on my 40x60!

That's really cool. You have a link to the actuator by chance?

Its a concentric #LACT12-1000B. I got it from surpluscenter.com for about $250, but I see its a little higher now. They are available all over the internet. It was the longest I could find to fit in between the frame and box. It does limit the full dump travel but it hasnt caused me a problem yet. The brackets are 2x2x1/4 angle iron.

The distance on the stock hydraulic lift assist are 13" hole to hole when closed. The specs on your actuator say it is 18" retracted. How did you get it to fit?
